A tallit-and-tefillin-wearing woman in a traditional Conservative synagogue?! An unorthodox—and non-orthodox—perspective on Jews and Judaism from a perpetual misfit. This blog, welcoming the entire Jewish community, is dedicated to those who take Judaism seriously, but not necessarily literally.
Thanks to Beth Hamon
for posting this video. Watch and, especially, listen--appearances can
be deceiving (and/or distracting, if the advertiser considers it
necessary to prevent the target audience from focusing on the truth).

Once upon a time, I belonged to a left-wing egalitarian Conservative synagogue, where I was one of a number of women who wore a tallit—and one of the few members who used an Orthodox prayer book (adding the Mothers, of course). Having moved since then, I now belong to a right-wing traditional Conservative synagogue, where I’m almost always the only woman wearing a tallit—and one of the few members who adds the Mothers. I seem destined to be forever . . . on the fringe.

advertisements can be misleading?
thanks captain obvious
Okay, so I updated the title to "*this* advertisement distracts people from danger." I've made it a point to run a civil, respectful blog, and I would appreciate it if you showed me the same respect. You could have made your point without being obnoxious.
